How do you make a photo part of the body of the post, as opposed to inserting a url that takes you to the stored image on a photo storage website? I see that people are making photos part of their posts. How do you do that? Copy and paste does not seem to work.

i will use your avatar as an example that you can try yourself...............right click on your avatar and select properties.........a new box will appear with the details.....the first line is "location" in this case it is

http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a400/ ... dsmall.jpg

highlight that bit (with no gaps at either end) and then right click and copy

you can then paste it into your post........then you can highlight it again (with no gaps at either end) and click the image box above the posting box.

the code in this case is

Code: Select all

[img]http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a400/Tobin44/Ferocactusaccanthodesdsmall.jpg[/img]

i left a gap in the middle of http......so the code would show instead of the image

without the gap it looks like this..........



you can get the location of any image by using .....right click/properties.......then use it to post the image here

like this




sorry guys ....just borrowed your avitars for a demo

Sounds like a win win situation to me

All I have to do is figure out how to get an avatar to it's proper size
